Hi, my name is Federica Zan and I'm 30 years old. I discoreved to love teaching Italian during a volunteering experience in Romania and from than on I couldn't stop. The most interesting experience in this path was teaching Italian to refugees for 2 years. Except this, I am always with a book in hand and a movie on the agenda. I am passionate about Russian culture and I once did the Trans-Siberian train journey. I absolutely love to travel! Now I decided to settle in Russia and get to the bottom of my passion for this huge country.Me as a Teacher
I have experienced different kind of courses and students, from some illiterate refugees to Italian fluent speakers and from individual courses to lessons in a restaurant about Italian food and its terminology. Therefore, I am open to shape the lessons as much as I can to conform to students' needs and wishes. Teaching, indeed, involves a collaboration between the student and the teacher. It's fundamental to keep curiosity and desire to learn always alive, and that's what I mostly search to achieve!My lessons & teaching style
I learnt to combine classical didactic with non-formal education, that means the lessons are usually two-fold: one side is composed of classical exercises (grammar, listening, writing...), while the other tries to exercise what was learnt in a creative and intuitive way. In this way the focus is on learner's partecipation and according to my experience this helps to internalize the knowledge acquired. If you are interested I would be glad to include Italian culture in the facets you are interested in. I also try to speak and use only Italian from the first lessons but I can speak English, German and Russian too, so we can always find a middle-way.My teaching material

Федерика - отличный учитель итальянского. Уроки у нее всегда интересные и познавательные. Ее стиль преподавания одновременно эффективен и приятен, что помогло мне очень быстро почувствовать прогресс. Она умеет подстроиться под ученика и сделать каждый урок комфортным. Очень рекомендую Федерику как преподавателя для учеников любого уровня и возраста.

Una lezione molto interessante sulla traduzione di un racconto. Abbiamo avuto una discussione su diversi temi, Federica pone sempre domande molto stimolanti, che fanno riflettere e permettono di avviare un dibattito su molti argomenti di attualità!
